AI-enabled gravitational-waves searches for binary neutron stars at optimal sensitivity

arXiv:2607.01372v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Gravitational Waves (GWs) represent the newest window of astronomy, furthering our understanding of compact objects like black holes and neutron stars in the Universe. The signal from two merging neutron stars is especially interesting since it brings the prospect of concordant electromagnetic and neutrino emissions. Such multi-messenger observations have a transformational impact on fundamental physics, nuclear matter, astrophysics, and gravity. It was first witnessed in 2017 with the detection of the binary neutron star (BNS) merger GW170817.
